On Saturday 5th December I went with my team Error 404. My team was Carl, Jack, Alex, and Sanujin. We were called that because we did have Error during making the robot but we always found a way to solve it. We went to a competition called Into Orbit to compete. What we did first we all meet up in the hall to discuss the rules. We then went to go and set our things on our table. There was a timetable which showed what time we needed to be somewhere. We first went to a room where we needed to introduce our self's and our robot. We then went to go and talk about the activity we have chosen and explain why we chose the activity. After this, we had the first challenge we were against a school. The rules were that there could only be two people in the square. If the robot does not come back and we move it that would be our first penalty. Each penalty takes away 2 points. We got 2 penalties for the first challenge. We then went for a break after we ate we then went to go change something about the robot before we have to go for our next challenge. Our next challenge was hard because the school against us had a different layout then ours and was really smart we got 3 penalties. We then went to another room where we needed to explain the challenges or problems we faced. Next, we went to a room where we needed to talk about how we worked together when we were at school learning about this. Finally, we faced our last challenge and we came out with 4 penalties. I think we tried our best and we all did a great job. It was then time for prize giving we didn't win a trophy but we got lego medals. The skills I have learnt in this are programming a robot and also building it.
